“AE jeans are the #1 brand for women of all ages and men in our core demographic–and we are excited to unleash our denim domination for back-to-school,” said Jennifer Foyle, President & Executive Creative Director – AE and Aerie. “The socially-connected Ziegler sisters and their personal approach to styling represent a genuine connection to our customer community, providing the inspiration to incorporate AE jeans into any outfit, for any occasion."

Longtime fans of AE, Maddie and Kenzie paired their elevated approach to outfitting with inspiration from the 90s. Collaborating with the expertise of AE’s design team, the Zieglers sought to design pieces that reflected them, while also alluding to who they are as individuals.

The collection ranges in price from $17.95 - $149.95.

“We are so excited to be collaborating with American Eagle - a brand that we have not only grown up with, but has allowed us to create something which reflects who we are today,” said Maddie Ziegler.

“We worked closely with the AE team to design pieces that show each of our individual styles while also drawing inspiration from an era that we love so much,” said Kenzie Ziegler when asked about the duo’s work on the collection.
